PS 5 Ellen Lurie consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of New York elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments in English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics compared to the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA ranged from 18.75% to 27.78%, while the district and state averages were higher, ranging from 38.87% to 43.68%.

However, the school's relatively stronger performance for students with special needs, as well as its efforts to support Hispanic students and English Language Learners, are noteworthy. Nearby schools, such as Amistad Dual Language School, Professor Juan Bosch Public School, and Washington Heights Academy, generally outperform PS 5 Ellen Lurie on academic measures and serve a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Continued focus on improving academic outcomes, particularly in core subject areas, and addressing the needs of the school's diverse student population, will be crucial for the school's success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
